Mystic,
Can you tell me a little about your suicidal ideation? Mine were like flashes of harming myself, or like thoughts of myself actually doing that. It is not at all like I wanted to kill myself, but I could not stop these pictures from popping into my head. It was the most awful experience of my life. They lasted about 7 weeks on lexapro, they got progressively less and less and at this point are pretty much gone. Mine were so bad, I would panic each time I saw my razor or a knife blade. I would hear something about suicide on TV and freak out. Know that now, my legs are clean shaven and I am cutting my meat (hehe). Good luck to you, know that it will get better. You took a wonderful step in taking this medication, if you have issues with taking medication, try to look to it as a vitamin, thats what I do, weird but it helps me. God Bless you, you will make it though and we will be here for your journey.
Lexy
